Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Unbalance-Ausgleichsvorrichtung für eine Waffenanlage, insbesondere bei einer schweren Waffe, mit einem in Elevationsrichtung schwenkbaren, das Waffenrohr tragenden Teil, der über einen Schildzapfen in einem festen Gestell gelagert ist, wobei der Schwerpunkt des schwenkbaren Teils außerhalb der Drehachse des Schildzapfens liegt, bei der ein dem Unbalance-Moment entgegenwirkendes Drehmoment durch mindestens eine Feder erzeugt wird.The invention relates to an imbalance compensation device for a weapon system, in particular in the case of a heavy weapon, with a part which can be pivoted in the elevation direction and which carries the weapon barrel and is mounted on a shield pin in a fixed frame, the center of gravity of the pivotable part outside the axis of rotation of the shield pin is at which a torque counteracting the imbalance torque is generated by at least one spring.
Eine derartige Unbalance-Ausgleichsvorrichtung ist in der älteren, gegenüber dem Prioritätstag der vorliegenden Anmeldung nicht vorveröffentlichten EP 0 357 940 A1 beschrieben, die einen Stand der Technik nach Art. 54 (3) EPÜ darstellt.Such an imbalance balancing device is described in the
Gemäß dem älteren Vorschlag sollte eine derartige Unbalance-Ausgleichsvorrichtung so ausgestaltet werden, daß sie sehr einfach ausgebildet ist und bei geringem Eigengewicht und äußerst geringem Platz bedarf auch bei großen Richtwinkeln ein guter Ausgleich des Unbalance-Momentes erreicht wird.According to the older proposal, such an unbalance compensation device should be designed in such a way that it is very simple and, with a low weight and extremely small space, good balance of the unbalance moment is achieved even with large straightening angles.
Dies wird bei dem älteren Vorschlag dadurch erreicht, daß als Feder mindestens eine Drehstabfeder dient, deren erstes Ende drehfest mit dem Gestell verbunden ist, während das zweite Ende über ein Getriebe mit dem schwenkbaren Teil der Waffe verbunden ist.This is achieved in the older proposal in that at least one torsion bar spring serves as the spring, the first end of which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the frame, while the second end is connected to the pivotable part of the weapon via a gear.
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezweckt eine Verbesserung und weitere Ausbildung dieses älteren Vorschlages.The present invention aims to improve and further develop this older proposal.
Der Erfindung liegen folgende Überlegungen zugrunde:
Bei einer Unbalance-Ausgleichsvorrichtung nach dem Hauptpatent wird die zum Unbalance-Ausgleich zur Verfügung stehende Drehstabfederenergie EFD, die durch das Getriebe auf die Waffe übertragen wird, bei linearer Kennlinie durch folgende Gleichung bestimmt:
Mit
- cD
- = Drehsteifigkeit der Drehstabfeder
- α1G
- = Verdrehwinkel der Drehstabfeder bei minimaler Elevation des schwenkbaren Teils der Waffe
- α1V
- = Verdrehwinkel der Drehstabfeder bei maximaler Elevation des schwenkbaren Teils der Waffe.
In the case of an imbalance compensation device according to the main patent, the torsion bar spring energy E FD available for imbalance compensation, which is transmitted to the weapon by the transmission, is determined with the linear characteristic by the following equation:
With
- c D
- = Torsional stiffness of the torsion bar spring
- α 1G
- = Torsion angle of the torsion bar with minimal elevation of the swiveling part of the weapon
- α 1V
- = Torsion angle of the torsion bar at maximum elevation of the swiveling part of the weapon.
Die zum vollständigen Unbalance-Ausgleich einer Waffe notwendige Energie Eu ist die mechanische Arbeit, die der Waffe bei der Drehung aus der kleinsten bis zur größten Elevation zugeführt werden muß. Sie ergibt sich aus folgenden Gleichungen:
Mit
- Mu20
- = größtes Unbalance-Moment der Waffe bei der Weffenelevation α ₂ = 0°
- α2max
- = maximale Elevation des schwenkbaren Teils der Waffe
- α2min
- = minimale Elevation des schwenkbaren Teils der Waffe.
With
- M u20
- = greatest imbalance moment of the weapon with the weapon elevation α ₂ = 0 °
- α 2max
- = maximum elevation of the swiveling part of the weapon
- α 2min
- = minimal elevation of the swiveling part of the weapon.
Es kann sich ergeben, daß die in der aus räumlichen oder anderen Gründen ausgewählten Drehstabfeder gespeicherte Energie EFD wesentlich kleiner ist als die zum vollständigen Unbalance-Ausgleich notwendige Energie Eu.It may result that the energy E FD stored in the torsion bar spring selected for spatial or other reasons is considerably smaller than the energy E u necessary for complete unbalance compensation.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, in Weiterbildung des Gegenstandes des älteren Vorschlages eine einfache Möglichkeit zu schaffen, weitere Energie zu speichern, um dennoch zu einem fast vollständigen Unbalance-Ausgleich zu gelangen.The invention is based on the object, in a further development of the subject matter of the older proposal, to provide a simple possibility of storing further energy in order nevertheless to achieve an almost complete imbalance compensation.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe geschieht erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß das oben erwähnte Getriebe mindestens ein zusätzliches Federelement enthält.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the above-mentioned gear contains at least one additional spring element.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist das Getriebe einen drehfest mit dem oben erwähnten zweiten Ende der Drehstabfeder verbundenen Hebel auf, der gelenkig mit einem am schwenkbaren Teil der Waffe angelenkten Federbein mit mindestens einer Druckfeder verbunden ist. Dabei kann diese Druckfeder mittels eines Anschlags vorspannbar ausgebildet sein und die Auslenkung dieser Druckfeder kann durch einen Anschlag begrenzt sein.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the transmission has a lever which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the above-mentioned second end of the torsion bar spring and which is connected in an articulated manner to a spring strut articulated on the pivotable part of the weapon with at least one compression spring. This compression spring can be designed to be prestressable by means of a stop and the deflection of this compression spring can be limited by a stop.
Es wird darauf hingewiesen, daß eine Reihe von Merkmalen des älteren Vorschlags in Verbindungen mit den Merkmalen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsformen führt. Insbesondere ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Drehstabfeder mindestens auf einem Teil ihrer Länge konzentrisch in einem drehbar im Gestell gelagerten Schutzrohr angeordnet ist, dessen eines Ende drehfest mit dem zweiten Ende der Drehstabfeder verbunden ist und daß das die Drehbewegung übertragende Getriebe mit dem Schutzrohr verbunden ist. Das Schutzrohr kann dabei selbst als Drehstabfeder ausgebildet sein.It is pointed out that a number of features of the older proposal in connection with the features of the present invention lead to particularly advantageous embodiments. In particular, it is advantageous if the torsion bar spring is arranged concentrically at least over part of its length in a protective tube rotatably mounted in the frame, one end of which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the second end of the torsion bar spring and that the gear mechanism which transmits the rotary movement is connected to the protective tube. The protective tube can itself be designed as a torsion bar spring.
Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, weitere Übertragungsglieder im Getriebe zwischen Drehstabfeder und Waffe als Federelemente zu gestalten, welche die zum vollständigen Unbalance-Ausgleich fehlende Energie speichern. Als besonders vorteilhaft eignet sich z.B. in einem Viergelenkgetriebe die Ausbildung der Verbindung zwischen dem mit dem zweiten Ende der Drehstabfeder verbundenen Nebel und dem schwenkbaren Teil der Waffe als weiterer Energiespeicher in Form eines Federbeins, wobei die Druckfeder z.B. bei linearer Federkennlinie unter Berücksichtigung des variablen Getriebeübersetzungsverhältnisses zur Anpassung an das Unbalance-Moment so ausgelegt werden muß, daß die folgenden Energiegleichungen angenähert erfüllt werden.

In Fig. 1 und 2 ist in stark schematisierter Darstellung die Waffenanlage im Turm eines Kampfpanzers zu sehen, wobei von der Waffenanlage der das feste Gestell, also die Lafette bildenden Turm 2, sowie der aus Waffenrohr und Wiegenkörper bestehende schwenkbare Teil 1 dargestellt sind. Der schwenkbare Teil 1 ist über einen Schildzapfen 1.1 im festen Gestell 2 in Elevationsrichtung schwenkbar gelagert und kann durch einen Richtantrieb 3 verschwenkt werden.1 and 2, the weapon system in the turret of a main battle tank can be seen in a highly schematic representation, with the weapon system depicting the tower 2 which forms the fixed frame, that is to say the carriage, and the pivotable part 1 consisting of the weapon barrel and cradle body. The pivotable part 1 is pivotally mounted in the fixed frame 2 in the elevation direction via a shield pin 1.1 and can be pivoted by a
Innerhalb des Innenraums 2.1 des Turms 2 ist parallel zur Drehachse des Schildzapfens 1.1, also quer zur Elevationsrichtung, in Schußrichtung vor dem Schildzapfen 1.1 und unterhalb des schwenkbaren Teils 1 der Waffe eine Drehstabfeder 4 angeordnet, deren eines Ende 4.0 über eine Kerbverzahnung 4.6 drehfest in einem mit dem Turm 2 verbundenen Lagerbock 2.2 fixiert ist, während das freie Ende 4.1 der Drehstabfeder 4 ebenfalls über eine Kerbverzahnung 4.6 drehfest mit einem Schutzrohr 4.3 verbunden ist, das die Drehstabfeder 4 auf etwa der Hälfte ihrer Länge konzentrisch umgibt und das über Kugel- und Rollenlager 4.4 in den Seitenwänden 2.3 des Waffenschachtes drehbar gelagert ist. Am äußeren Umfang des Schutzrohres 4.3 ist ein Nebel 4.2 befestigt, der gelenkig mit einem Ende eines Federbeins 5 verbunden ist, dessen anderes Ende am schwenkbaren Teil 1 der Waffe angelenkt ist. Das Federbein 5 enthält eine Druckfeder 5.1, deren Vorspannung durch einen verschraubbaren Anschlag 5.2 verändert werden kann. Weiterhin begrenzt ein fester Anschlag 5.3 die Auslenkung der Druckfeder 5.1.Within the interior 2.1 of the turret 2, a
Das Drehmoment der Drehstabfeder 4 wird zunächst auf das infolge seiner elastischen Eigenschaften ebenfalls als Drehstabfeder wirkende Schutzrohr 4.3 übertragen, von dem es über den Hebel 4.2 und das Federbein 5 schließlich auf den schwenkbaren Teil 1 der Waffe übertragen wird. Durch entsprechende Wahl des Anlenkungspunktes des Federbeins 5 am schwenkbaren Teil 1 der Waffe ist ein Kurbelradius 1.2 vorgegeben, während der Kurbelradius des Hebels 4.2 mit 4.5 bezeichnet ist. Durch entsprechend unterschiedliche Wahl dieser beiden Kurbelradien 1.2 bzw. 4.5 kann die Vorspannung, der geeignete Verdrehwinkel und das zu übertragende Moment der Drehstabfeder 4 variiert werden. Die Auslegung des als weitere Energiespeicher dienenden Federbeins 5 geschieht nach den oben angegebenen Formeln.The torque of the
In Fig. 2 sind zwei verschiedene Stellungen der Waffenanlage 1 mit ausgezogenen bzw. strichpunktierten Linien und die entsprechende Lage des Hebelgetriebes eingezeichnet. In der mit ausgezogenen Linien dargestellten Stellung, die einer Stellung der Waffe 1 mit großer Elevation entspricht, besitzt das Federbein 5 ersichtlich eine etwas größere Länge als in der mit strichpunktierten Linien angedeuteten Stellung, die einer Stellung der Waffe 1 bei kleiner Elevation entspricht. Durch diese Längenänderung wird das Getriebeübersetzungsverhältnis in der gewünschten Weise angepaßt.In Fig. 2 two different positions of the weapon system 1 are drawn with solid or dash-dotted lines and the corresponding position of the lever mechanism. In the position shown with solid lines, which corresponds to a position of the weapon 1 with a large elevation, the
Fig. 3 beschreibt mit den Kurven I, II und III die vorteilhaften Auswirkungen der zusätzlich eingebrachten Druckfeder als weitere Energiespeicher am Beispiel eines Viergelenkgetriebes.3 describes with curves I, II and III the advantageous effects of the additionally introduced compression spring as a further energy store using the example of a four-bar transmission.
Die Kurve I zeigt das auszugleichende Waffenunbalancemoment in Abhängigkeit von der Waffenelevation α ₂ als Kosinusfunktion.Curve I shows the weapon imbalance moment to be compensated as a function of the weapon elevation α ₂ as a cosine function.
Kurve III stellt das allein durch die Drehstabfeder erreichbare Ausgleichsmoment dar, wodurch nur - wie der Vergleich mit Kurve I zeigt - ein teilweiser Unbalanceausgleich erzielt wird.Curve III represents the compensation torque that can only be achieved by the torsion bar spring, whereby only - as the comparison with curve I shows - partial unbalance compensation is achieved.
Kurve II liefert das aus Drehstab- und Druckfeder resultierende Ausgleichsmoment, wobei die Druckfeder als weiterer Energiespeicher nach den obenstehenden Gleichungen ausgelegt ist.Curve II provides the compensation torque resulting from the torsion bar and compression spring, the compression spring being designed as a further energy store according to the equations above.
Wie der Vergleich mit Kurve I zeigt, ergibt sich - wie angestrebt - durch die zusätzlich integrierte Druckfeder ein fast vollständiger Unbalanceausgleich, wobei die noch bestehende geringe Differenz im Zusammenhang mit Spielunterdrückung erwünscht sein kann.As the comparison with curve I shows, as desired, the additionally integrated compression spring results in an almost complete unbalance compensation, whereby the small difference still remaining in connection with play suppression may be desirable.
Um die zum fast vollständigen Unbalance-Ausgleich notwendige Energie, angepaßt an die Kosinuskurve der Waffenunbalance, speichern und wieder abgeben zu können, kann die Druckfeder nicht vorgespannt oder durch den veränderbaren Anschlag 5.2 vorgespannt sein. Ferner kann die Auslenkung der Druckfeder zusätzlich durch den Anschlag 5.3 begrenzt sein.In order to be able to store and release the energy necessary for almost complete imbalance compensation, adapted to the cosine curve of the weapon imbalance, the compression spring cannot be pretensioned or pretensioned by the variable stop 5.2. Furthermore, the deflection of the compression spring can also be limited by the stop 5.3.
